In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail (详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.46. People with little education usually .A. spend a long time in schoolB. have a good chance to get a jobC. spend the best years to choose jobsD. have fewer chances to get a good job47. One of the earliest reasons of education was probably to .A. make a man lead a better lifeB. teach a man to write and thinkC. make people get a way of livingD. teach people to read good books48. The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “” in Chinese.A.圆满的B.崭新的C.公平的D.全面的49. It is expected that educated people will be able to .A. accept education as a way of livingB. take an interest in the worldC. develop their abilities to make playsD. learn subjects like language and mathematics50. The passage mainly tells us that .A. education should make a man improveB. people can get education in a short timeC. people should be able to get better paying jobsD. all subjects are so important for a way of living五、句型转换（每小题2分，满分10分）51.

I myself went through this 16 process (过程) and found something that has changed my experience at college for the better: I discovered ASL﹣American Sign Language.I never felt it necessary to learn any sign language before. All of my family members can hear, and so are all my friends. The 17 language was enough. Little by little, I discovered my 18 for ASL.The 19 began during my first week at college. I watched it carefully when the ASL club performed their translation of a song. Both the hand movements and the idea of communicating without speaking attracted me. What I saw was completely different from anything I had experienced in the past. This new form of communication just made me want more.After that, feeling the need to 20 further, I decided to join one of ASL clubs. I only learned how to 21 my feelings with my hands about the letters that day. Although my process was 22 , I wasn’t disappointed about it. I then tried my best to take part in those club’s meetings and learned all I could.The following term, I decided to be a member of an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking wasn’t 23 . I soon realized that silence was not unpleasant. 24 , if there had been any talking, it would have caused to learn less.

All around him were grassy hills without t rees. He had nowhere to hide. How could he escape?Hannay walked along the country for a long time. Then he saw a road worker, who was working alone, fixing the road. Hannay could see the road worker was not feeling well. Hannay came up to him and said “How are you?”“My head hurts,” the worker said, “I can’t do it. I want to go home to bed. My daughter got married yesterday, and I drank a lot of wine with my friends. That’s the problem!”Hannay agreed that he should be home in bed.“Yes, and I would be,” he replied,” but yesterday I received a message saying that the new surveyor was coming to look at my work. If he comes and finds me away, I’ll be in trouble.”Suddenly Hannay had a bright idea--he could act as the road worker and get away from his enemies.“You go off to bed,” Hannay said, “I’ll do your job until the new surveyor comes.”The road worker was pleased with this idea. He gave Hannay his hat and his old coat. Then he went home to sleep and perhaps to drink a bit more. Hannay put on the worker’s hat and coat and began to fix the road. About an hour later he heard a voice.“Are you the road worker?” it asked.It was the new surveyor. He was a young man with a clean face. He sat in a small car.Hannay said yes. The surveyor told him about some work he wanted him to do before he came by again and drove off. Hannay continued with his work.Then a village boy came by. “What has happened to the road worker?” he asked.“He stayed at home today,” Hannay replied. “He’s sick.”At about midday, a large car came down the hill and stopped near Hannay. Three man got out of the car. Hannay’s heart beat fast. He knew his enemies were coming...26．What is this passage probably taken from?A. A history book.B. A travel book.C. A novelD.

A village boy.29．What can we infer (推断) from the story?A. Hannay helped the road worker because he was warm-hearted.B. The grassy hills were a perfect hiding place for Hannay.C. The surveyor had lot of working experience.D. The village boy knew the road worker.30．What is the correct order of the story？①Hannay met a road worker who was not feeling well and offered to take over for him.②Hannay was worried because his enemies were following him.③A car stopped near Hannay and three men got out.④Hannay acted as the road worker when the surveyor came by.⑤The village boy wondered what had happened to the road worker.A. ②→①→④→⑤→③B. ②→①→④→③→⑤C. ①→④→②→⑤→③D. ①→④→②→③→⑤BThe impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important. Someinterviewers decide to give someone a job just in the first three minutes of the interview. They watch your appearance, attitude and gesture.A friendly smile is important when you walk into the room. A smile shows confident and positive attitude. When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a hand-shake. Others don’t.Try to be as natural as possible. But take a look at your body language. The way you sit, walk, use your voice and show feelings on your face are all parts of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself. Are you feeling confident in yourself? Your abilities? Your interest in the job?Speak clearly and loud enough. Show interest in your voice. When you speak, look at the interviewer. Also don’t say bad things about yourself or the company you worked for before. Listen to questions carefully. If you don’t understand a question, ask the interviewer to say it again. “I am sorry, but I didn’t catch that. “ “I am not sure what you mean.”Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. But they want you to try to control your nervousness. They want you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for his or her time. It’s a good idea to sends a short thank-you letter right after the interview, or send it by hand. Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the interview. 31．The interviewer will NOT care too much about _______ in the interview.A. your appearanceB. your attitudeC. your gestureD. your nervousness32．The underlined word “positive” in paragraph 2 means “_______” in Chinese.A. 积极的B. 模糊的C. 明确的D. 消极的33．We should care about our body language because __________A. it can show our feelings on the face.B. it can help us leave a good impression on the interviewer.C. it can help us know more about ourselves and the interviewer.D. it can help us control our nervousness.34．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. You can talk about bad things of your former company in an interview.B. It’s good to thank the interviewer at the end of the interview.C. An interview usually lasts for minutes.D. You should talk in a low voice to the interviewer.35．What is the best title of this passage?A. Show Interest in the InterviewB. Be confident in an InterviewC. Make a Good Impression in an InterviewD.

I was expecting a quiet view of the art works. A young couple ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them for a moment and found the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husband’s patience for her continuous talk. Distracted by their noise, I movedon, I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her nonstop words, I moved away quickly.I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended it into a long stick and then carefully went into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket.“He’s a brave man,” The clerk at the counter said, “Most of us would give up if we became blind at such a young age. But he made a promise that his life wouldn’t change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there’s a new art show.”“But what does he get out of the art?” I asked, “He can’t see”“Can’t see? You’re wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do.” The clerk said, “His wife introduces each painting carefully so he can see it in his head.”I learnt something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife introducing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away, hand in hand.26.

Taste different foods in the market.(C)Most people call it “body language”— the clues to the meaning that we get from gestures, facial expressions, postures —everything that isn’t spoken. Experts call it “nonverbal communication,”but in fact, all these mean the same thing: a second source of human communication that is often more reliable (可靠的) to understand what is really going on than the words themselves.Understanding body language is important to success, whether in the business world or in our personal lives. However, most of our ideas about body language are wrong, according to modern communication research.There is a belief that people with shifty are probably lying. As Paul Ekman says, “When we asked people how they could tell someone was lying, too much blinking (眨眼) and shifty eyes were the winners. But sometimes people act like that because they are shy. Liars pretend to be quiet in order not to be caught.”Ekman goes on to argue against such a wrong belief. Although this kind of body language is probably an expression of nervousness, it is not always because the person is lying. Shyness can, for example, make people shift their eyes. To understand what someone’s behavior means, you have to watch them carefully.There is also a belief that when meeting someone, the more eye contact, the better. As a result, people would like to make eye contact in formal situations, like a job interview, by staring fixedly at the other human. Yet Ekman points out that most of us are comfortable with eye contact lasting a few seconds, but any eye contact that is longer than that can make us nervous.In short, you must carefully think about the speaker and the speaking environment. Experts suggest that if you don’t know about someone’s basic communication style, you will have little hope in understanding their true feelings through body language. In other words, body language carries important but not always true messages.36. The word “shifty” in paragraph 3 means _________.A. 有神的B. 愧疚的C. 朦胧的D. 狡黠的37. The word “that” in paragraph 3 refers to _________.A. blinkingB. lyingC. staringD. pretending38. From the passage we can learn that _________.A. there is no doubt that a liar has shifty eyesB. people sometimes blink because of shynessC. eye contact lasting a few seconds can make us nervousD. understanding body language is more helpful in business39. How many examples are given by the writer to support his opinion?A. 1.B. 2.C. 3.D. 4.40. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.A. when we judge who is lying, body language is more reliable than words.B. body language, as a second source of human communication, helps us better understandother peopleC. understanding body is not important to success, no matter in .the business world or in ourdaily livesD. the speaker and the speaking environment are important to a person’s body language(D)根据短文内容，从A～E中选择恰当的句子填入短文空白处，使上下文连贯。
